1: In some parts of my IQ testing I scored at the genius level. My average is lower though.
2: I am one of the dumbest people that I know.
3: Also, dumbgenius is in some ways an oxymoron. I guess it is also a way of me joking about the validity/limitations of IQ tests.

Combine my favorite car (The AE86 Corolla, AKA, Trueno/Levin, dependent on headlight style) with my favorite music, you get TruenoBlues

It's a nickname my dad gave me when I was younger, and for the past couple of years I've been using it as a pen name for my drawings.

Taken from the leading man in John Woo's actionfest Hard-Boiled. Nothing to do with the alcoholic drink, contrary to popular belief.

Rad is short for Radiana. I signed up with the name of Rad because that's what everyone shortens it to online. I got the name Radiana from a cigar box label.

I got it from a history book and it just sounded cool to me.

The Federalist (a political party in the 1800's) controlled congress passed the Judiciary act of 1801, creating 16 new federal judges. Before leaving office, President Adams appointed federalists to these positions, thus gaining control of the Supreme Court. These judges were nicknamed "midnight judges" because Adams supposedly signed appointments until midnight on his last day in office.

After reading something that basically said that, I pondered the term "midnight judge". I imagined this scene with a big cloaked towering dark figure behind a huge podium, with a courtroom full of skeletons and two statues of grim reapers that will come alive when it is time for an execution.

I was called a Cockney Rebel durring my last days working at a factory. A group of women and I were talking about music that we like. I told them all the British groups that I enjoy listening to. One of the more feminine women told me to please give Cockney Rebel a break. I had a very rebelious attitude when I've joined back in 2004. I was more of a 1960s type Mod, last year and I've almost changed my name to Austin Powers, or Routemaster. I became a Punker in early February and decided to stick with CockneyRebel.

Zincubus is my alter ego ... it comes from my fave band INCUBUS but it didn't sound like a "name" so I took the Z from my two fave soccer players Zico ( best ever Brazilian player IMHO) and Zinedine Zidane ( prob the BEST ever player.

I just stuck 'Mr' at the front and there we have it. :)


There's a really sweet cat at the local animal shelter named "Winston."

I hadn't realized they were the ones who did that song. I'd never heard of "Styx."

I have a nonverbal learning disability, and spend a significant portion of my time lost (even in my department's building! :oops: ), so I thought the name was appropriate. It's not because I'm a "Lost in Space" fan.
